So be it, it should improve them and subsequently aid British speedway moving forward

Yes it would improve them and help the GB national team.But as HGould said this would not help league speedway in the UK at all.It would just increase the speed of the demise of any league speedway in the UK if they were all to go to Poland.

They'd still race in the top league

Really disappointed if Mountain isn't at Lynn but instead Sheffield as suggested, he should have been Lynn's first name. Sheffield offering more bucks one assumes.

No doubt Lynn will end up with the AN Other and therefore the sixth strongest  

Or maybe to do with the Bates owning Leicester & Sheffield.

All guesses but...

Sheff - Mountain

Vue - Palin

P'boro - Brennan

Wolves - Thompson/Hume

Ippo - Flint

Lynn - Kemp

Flint re-signed for Wolves. Still learning his way around Monmore but quite useful away on the big away tracks.

didn't expect that to be fair but it does show his commitment to learn all tracks rather than just look for ones that suit him so hats off.

Ranking who I think are the top "rising stars"

1-6: Tom Brennan, Connor Mountain, Leon Flint, James Shanes, Jordan Palin, Alfie Bowtell

7-12: Dan Thompson, Drew Kemp, Anders Rowe, Jack Thomas, Connor Bailey, Dan Gilkes.

Enough talent for 2 x "rising stars" in Prem teams?

So likely to be Mountain, Palin, Brennan, Flint, Kemp + a.n.other (possibly D.Thompson) with the ever unfortunate Hume missing out.

Jack Thomas is one

With Tom Brennan likely to be injured for a quite a while now, what is the rule with him in main body, can R/R be used, does it have have to be number 8?

R/R would make a mockery of the RS system

No 8, r/r or another RS as a guest [12.4]

Thanks found it 

  If riding at #7 then the #8 must be used.
If the #8 is unavailable a guest from the Rising Star list must be used.
Where a guest from the Rising Star list is used their Rising Star rating AND MA must be lower or equivalent to the lowest Rising Star declared. The Rising Star guest must not be in a current Premiership 1-8

If riding in positions #1 - #5 the options are: #8, RR or G from the Rising Star list.
If the G option is chosen, the replacement rider must have an MA lower or equivalent to the missing rider and can be in another Premiership 1-8.
The 5% enhancement for home riders is not applicable in this situation.

Mockery it is then!!

Charles Wright and 2 foreign reserves (so a recent British and current German Champion) now able to take the rides of the RS position

[Bash 496]

They should be made to get a rising star guest and move them to No. 7, so the higher of the two reserves moves up to No 2. Shouldn't be allowed RR for a rising star.
